S1:E2 – What are the Rhetorical Canons?
with Dr. David R. Dewberry & Dr. Tim "As Seen on TV" McGee.
In this episode, we discuss the five rhetorical canons, which will really blow you away.
This episode is sponsored by Burton, Lanham, and Quinn's Warehouse of Rhetorical Devices.
The untrasnlated Latin phrase is: "Auferre, trucidare, rapere, falsis nominibus imperium; atque, ubi solitudinem faciunt, pacem appellant."
Rhetoric-O-Rama is a fun and educational introduction to rhetoric by two college professors, Dr. David R. Dewberry and Dr. Tim "As Seen on TV" McGee. Each episode features a discussion on some aspect of rhetoric, some untranslated Latin or Greek, and then some tasty extra bonus content: a fallacy, a historical tidbit, or a stylistic device to help improve your own rhetoric.
Whether you listen for fun or to learn the difference between Hermagoras of Temnos from Hermogenes of Tarsus, we hope you enjoy our podcast and support our made up sponsors.
Dave & Tim are professors of communication in New Jersey. After each show, they get a cheeseburger and celebrate the time Tim was on Wheel of Fortune in the early 80s.
